In the three territories (Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut) the term is also "Legislative Assembly."
In Ontario, however, the legislature is called the "Provincial Parliament," in Québec it is the "National Assembly," and in Newfoundland and Labrador, it is the "House of Assembly." The elected members in those provinces are called MPPs, MNAs, and MHAs accordingly.

The head of the government is the Premier, who is chosen by and from the elected Legislative Assembly of Nunavut. The assembly is composed of 19 members serving 4-year terms of office, and representing a total of about 33,000 constituents, many belonging to the scattered Inuit tribes.
